Could it be that the underflow caused some signed logic to misbehave and fail to detect that we passed 385876591?

Later we have another such big skip (but this time nothing waits for it I guess):

[  541.337813] [drm:drm_update_vblank_count] updating vblank count on crtc 1: current=402653363, diff=16777040, hw=3 hw_last=179
